What crypto means by it
A way to split a private key into shares held in different places, so no single share can move money and no single breach can steal it. The shares co-operate to sign without ever being reassembled into one key.
What you already know this as
A safe that needs two managers turning two keys at once, except the whole key is never assembled in one room even for a moment.
In Kite: This is how Kite secures your wallet. Keys are split across parties using TSS-MPC, with social login backup so a lost phone is not a lost balance.
